I want to get a 1 inch or 1/4 inch aluminum grab rail made for my boat bow to attach to the hardtop. Want it to have 3 attachment points, and 2 bolts per bolt plate. I'm think a bent piece of rail with the attahment points welded on like flanges with 2 mounting bolts.
Put a sample picture at the photo board on this link:

I really want to have somebody come to my place, take the measurements, then bring it when its done. But will drag the boat to some place if I need to.
Who does this kind of stuff?
Any metal fabricator with tube forming equipment should be fully capable of making the rail.
I'm not really sure if one center leg and 2 crews per flange is going to be robust enough with aluminum tubing. I would suggest two legs in the middle and 3 mounting holes per flange. You might consider stainless steel.
If you could take your own measurements, there's a number of companies the build T-tops for saltwater boats that would make it for you.
Good luck.
